i5 9600kf running on ASRock Z370 Pro4 with Noctua NH-U12S at auto voltage, max 68°C under load (idle 32-36°C). I'm using Linux and don't always have the tools available. Is this setup safe for everyday use or should I consider switching to offset or fixed voltage? I'm not very confident about overclocking and have seen others achieve stable results around 1.42-1.43V at 5GHz.

Ensure your CPU stays cool for optimal auto voltage performance. Your Asus board might allow adjusting a negative offset in BIOS to lower voltage if needed—no need to worry. Here’s how to set a -75 mV offset on an Asus system. Most Intel 9th and 10th Gen desktop CPUs work perfectly at -50 mV or -75 mV.
